Leave the “noise” behind – the clutter of lighting,

air diffusers and returns, sprinkler systems, and

unwanted sound – that busy the ceiling plane.

TechZone easily organizes these systems into

150mm wide technical zones.

A range of compatible fixtures from our partner

companies have been prequalified for fit

and finish.

The result – a clean, monolithic look, using

standard ceiling panels and suspension systems.

Armstrong TECH ZONE is easy to specify and install.

Armstrong TECH ZONE is compatible with the more popular building module - 1200mm. The technical zone can be installed parallel or perpendicular to the façade. The combinations of suspension systems, tiles and technical elements are almost unlimited. The following illustrations give you a flavour of what you can achieve.

To specify and design a system, you just have to follow the following steps:1 Select the ceiling module.2 Determine the on-centre spacing of the linear technical zone.3 Choose the TZ orientation, field panel type and dimensions. 4 Select the edge detail and the grid that’s compatible with Armstrong TECH ZONE.5 Select the material of the Technical Panel.

Choose the Technical Elements to be integrated. Although building modules can vary country to country, Armstrong can provide a solution to meet your individual needs.

TechZone Main Runners have slots at every 150mm. (Silhouette MR with Custom rout & mitre cut location)

To create a technical zone, Cross Tees can be fixed every 150mm for integration of the 150mm wide

lighting fixtures and air diffusers recommended by the Armstrong Tech Zone partners. For integration of larger Technical Elements, such as

chilled beams, the Cross Tees can be fixed at 300mm distance.

TechZone Load Capacity

As with any other ceiling system, TECH ZONE has maximum load capacities. However, as TECH ZONE differs from traditional ceiling systems and offers much more flexibility in ceiling layouts, the maximum load capacities will vary from solu-tion to solution. To show all the possible combinations of suspension systems, panels and TECH ZONE partners products, LOAD CApACITy TAbLES are included on page 14.

create 150 or 300mm* wide techni-

cal zones, for

TECH ZONE combines:- Suspension Systems,

- Field Panels (FP, installed between technical zones),

- Technical Panels (TP, installed in technical zones),

- Technical Elements (TE: Luminaires, air diffusers… installed in technical zones).

* to be introduced.

In case it is required to integrate continuous luminaires or Technical Elements of different lengths,the Main Runners need to be installed parallel to the technical zone and

small Cross Tees need to be added wherever necessary.

Installing Main Runners perpendicular to the technical zone establishes set Technical Panel sizes for the integration of Technical Elements.

Use the following table to estimate the required quantities of grid components and Field Panels for the different TECH ZONE configurations. To do so, multiply the ceiling area (m2) by the Estimating Factor (EF) of each product. The quantity of Technical Panels and the number of small Cross Tees (150 & 300mm) will depend on the type and quantity of Technical Elements and are therefore not part of the calculation.

* For estimating factors of layouts with Silhouette grid, please get in touch with Armstrong representative.
